Case Study: Heinz History Center restores usability and searchable archives with RedTree Web Design

Heinz History Center restores its archives site in 2024 with RedTree Web Design

The Heinz History Center's Rauh Jewish Archives, a historical archive in Pittsburgh, faced a challenge with its nearly unusable website. The site, plagued by crashes and a broken search function, locked the team into a disordered template. RedTree Web Design was enlisted to address these technical and usability issues.

RedTree Web Design solved these problems by updating the site's design for simpler navigation, fixing the database to restore search functionality, and adding features that gave the archives team control to create new pages. As a result, the Rauh Jewish Archives website is now fully functional and accessible, fulfilling its purpose as a premier resource for the community's history without technical obstacles.
